May be time to fire up the ol petition machine
Shut up dudeCongrats to Grey and Chandler. They played their ass off tonight.
the players played hard as hell and that’s a great sign going forward.
With the effort the team played with tonight I wish one of your cowards cheering against your own team had the balls to tell that to their faces.
GBFO!!
Would be hilarious in a dark, dark, way that we'd probably pay dearly for.
Yards are obviously predictive of scoring and winning, I think he is alluding to that. The difference in this case was 2 missed FGs (STs), a single throw that turned into a pick six, and 2 possessions ending with the clock running out. We only punted twice all game. Nor did the defense help with our field position. Our average Starting Field Position was at the 22.5 YL, while the average SFP is around the 29 in the SEC.Somebody tell Pruitt that points win ballgames not yards
The problem is that the staff is game planning to score 24 and if everything doesn’t go to plan we score less (ie 17). Sure we had plenty of yards but you have to allow your offense enough scoring opportunities that they can make mistakes and still put up points. Literally every good team does it.Yards are obviously predictive of scoring and winning, I think he is alluding to that.

But those few plays and long fields don't define how an offense controlled and managed the game overall. Gray had over 170+ yards and we had over 460 yards total. 60% on 3rd down. Give me that all day with better field position.
